Today, young people spend about six hours a day in front of a TV or a computer and less than four minutes playing outdoors. It is not healthy for the mind and the body when time spent using technology replaces outdoor time.
Some health experts(专家) call green time "vitamin G". Kids who don't get outdoors much are likely to have trouble in school. Doctors believe that is because being outdoors excites the mind more than sitting around indoors. Even those who usually spend a lot of time outdoors notice a difference when they don't get green time. Madelyne P., 14, says, "I feel more tired when I don't get outdoors."
Researchers believe the positive(积极的) effects of green time come from the physical activity in pastimes such as hiking or boating. Exercise produces brain chemicals that improve learning, mood, and sleep. It also improves learning by increasing connections between nerve cells that are important in learning and memory. Some schools hold classes outside for those reasons. Student Hannah Smith, 18, says she believes the outdoors helps her focus and gets her to learn. Learning in a forest sparked her interest in art and photography, too.
Even doctors are helping give their patients a dose of vitamin G.Miller writes "park prescriptions(处方)" for her patients because,she says, "being outdoors is good for health." She finds that when she gives patients park prescriptions, they are likely to continue with them.
Getting outdoors can be simple, just like calling together your family for a picnic lunch. All it takes is five minutes or more of green time. Get outside, and get your vitamin G!

It was a touching moment at the National Zoo in Washington, US: tens of thousands of people from all over the country, and even the world, came to say goodbye to one of the area’s most popular residents(居民), BaoBao—a 3-year-old panda.
BaoBao left for her new home in Chengdu, China on Feb 22. She’s the first female panda born in the US and has won the hearts of many Americans. A number of goodbye events were held, including a dumpling party and cake feedings. Information about her flight was even made available online so that people could keep learning about her journey.
It had been decided that BaoBao must return to China according to an agreement between China and the US. In fact,most pandas around the world are borrowed from China and baby pandas born abroad will be sent back before they’re four.
Being native to China and loved around the world, the cute black-and-white animals have played an important role in the country’s diplomacy (外交). This is known as“Panda Diplomacy”. Animal diplomacy dates back to the Tang Dynasty(唐朝), when Empress Wu Zetian sent a pair of pandas to the Japanese emperor. China restarted panda diplomacy in the 1950s when China sent two pandas to the Moscow Zoo. By 1982, China had given 23 pandas to nine different countries. The most famous was China’s gift of two pandas, Ling-Ling and Xing-Xing, to the US in 1972 after President Richard Nixon’s visit to China.
However, since early 1980s, China has stopped giving away pandas for free because their number is becoming smaller. For example, zoos in the US, UK and France“rent”pandas from China. The money they pay for the pandas, which are from tens of thousands to millions of US dollars, was used to protect and breed(繁育) the endangered animals.
Besides pandas, elephants and dogs have also been given as diplomatic gifts. In 1953, Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh sent Chairman Mao Zedong two Asian elephants as gifts as a symbol of the friendship between the two countries.
1.According to Paragraph 2, we can learn that ___________.
A.people ate dumplings and cakes to celebrate BaoBao’s leaving
B.some of BaoBao’s fans would travel back to China with her
C.fans of BaoBao could find out her flight information online
D.BaoBao’s everyday activities were open to her fans in the world
2.Why did BaoBao have to return to China?
A.Because her mother was in China. B.Because of serious illness.
C.Because she was already 5 years old. D.Because of the agreement.
3.Which of these countries is not mentioned to have received pandas from China as gifts?
A.Vietnam B.UK C.France D.USA
4.From Paragraphs 4 and 5, the writer is telling us ___________.
A.Zoos in the US, UK and France “rent” pandas to make much money
B.China is not giving away pandas to foreign countries for free any more
C.Ling-Ling and Xing-Xing were gifts for the US president himself

Keeping a busy social life among lots of friends may keep people thinner than spending several hours in a gym, according to scientists. Scientists believe social activities can release a brain chemical that changes white fat into brown fat. Brown fat burns calories (卡路里). To produce heat, while white fat keeps calories and make us fatter.
Changing white fat into brown fat is very difficult, generally requiring long-term exposure to cold conditions or making part of the body’s nervous (神经的) system active. However, scientists from Ohio State University think that having a busy social life is an even better way of carrying out this change.
Tests on mice showed that those lived in large communities and had more space and toys lost half of their stomach weight in four weeks, even if they ate more than those in boring, lonely environments. Researchers said that social excitement helps lose weight.
However, social activities make some people worried. Study writer Dr Matthew During said, “I’m still amazed at the degree of losing fat that happens. We often think of stress (压力) as a negative thing, but some kinds of stress can be good for your health.”
Explaining how new technology had reduced the chance for people to communicate face to face, he added, “It’s not just because of being short of exercise and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social activities. Loneliness is a deep cause of cancer and death, it’s just as dangerous as smoking. Social activities are very important.
根据短文内容选择最佳答案。
1.The underlined word “exposure” means________in Chinese.
A.勘探 B.适应 C.暴露

B.Mice living in boring and lonely environments will gain weight although they eat less.
C.The results from test on mice aren’t fit for humans.
4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Brown fat keeps calories and make people fatter while white fat burns calories to produce heat.
B.To change white fat into brown fat, long-term exposure to cold conditions is required.
